[Tinyos-help] HPLPowerManagement - please reply

[Muhammad Azhar]

Hi,    I'm really not quite sure how to use HPLPowerManagement on a MicaZ platform in TinyOS 1.1.15.  Reading through the archives, I came across an explanation by Joe Polastre who wrote: For HPLPowerManagement to work, an application must callCC1000RadioC.StdControl.stop().    I have tried wiring my StdControl (CCRadioControl) to RadioCRCPacket and tried calling CCRadioControl.stop() before I enabled power management, but I can only send the message once.  The results were similar when I tried wiring my StdControl to CC2420RadioC too.   In my program, I tried calling CCRadioControl.stop() and then calling CCRadioControl.start() 100ms prior to the mote using the radio to send a message, after which it sleeps for about 900ms.  This should be done periodically, but instead, it is done only once.    Your help would be very much appreciated.  I have listed my code for the wiring below.  Please ignore the FramerM and UART component for the moment as I'm trying to forward the message from the base station to the serial port, but currently it's not successful. configuration TestSleepC{}implementation{components Main, TestSleepM, GenericComm,FramerM, UART, TimerC, LedsC, Photo,CC2420RadioC#ifdef __AVR__, HPLPowerManagementM as PM#endif; #ifdef __AVR__TestSleepM.PowerManagement -> PM;TestSleepM.Enable -> PM.Enable;#endif Main.StdControl -> TimerC;Main.StdControl -> TestSleepM;TestSleepM.RadioControl -> GenericComm.Control;TestSleepM.RadioControl -> Photo.StdControl;TestSleepM.CCRadioControl -> CC2420RadioC.StdControl;TestSleepM.Timer -> TimerC.Timer[unique("Timer")];TestSleepM.SendBcn -> GenericComm.SendMsg[AM_START];TestSleepM.SendLight -> GenericComm.SendMsg[AM_SLEEP];TestSleepM.ReceiveBcn -> GenericComm.ReceiveMsg[AM_START];TestSleepM.ReceiveLight -> GenericComm.ReceiveMsg[AM_SLEEP];TestSleepM.Leds -> LedsC.Leds;TestSleepM.ADC -> Photo;TestSleepM.UARTControl -> FramerM;TestSleepM.UARTSend -> FramerM;TestSleepM.UARTReceive -> FramerM;FramerM.ByteControl -> UART;FramerM.ByteComm -> UART;}    Once again, your help in thi
s matter would be very much appreciated. Regards,Azhar
